Medium voltage variable frequency drives (VFDs) are quickly becoming a defacto standard for motor control in commercial and industrial buildings.
Both new and old (VFD replacement) medium voltage variable frequency drive applications reap the benefits the latest generation of these intelligent devices bring. For example, a replacement VFD may be needed due to damage from a power surge, or because a 20-year-old motor and drive combination isn’t compatible with the building’s current management system and remote monitoring is crucial for the application. New applications, on the other hand, are likely upgrading from older, obsolete motor control technologies.
In either scenario, replacing motors and drives may not be as easy as merely swapping units, powering up and walking away. But the task can be relatively straightforward when you know what to look for and how to properly go about sourcing and specifying motors and drives for the specified application.
